Expressions***

Glorious are morning’s songs…
 life awaking, and
how my soul always longs 
for each new sunrise!

Entrancing are the dances of the day!
Birds wake to soar and swoop.
Flowers bob and lean.
Children rise with action-stories of dreams galore!

Hopeful are waking prayers!
Loving is their tone,
to cherish God’ s promises, with
the faith we do not walk alone!

Touching are poets’ pens!
Their words iIllume feelings of the heart,
from pains to joys
We find  poems may become ,like friends!

Love this..poems are indeed like a good friend.... I look back and am glad to meet old friends. They show me where I was, Sally, and how far have come. They are milestones and markers of how far I still have to go. Merci. Panagiota

Panagiota, my poet friend! Thank you. I must tell you of the 1st dearest friend of my heart — as a teen, I recall several times lying on the floor weeping as I read Tennyson’s “In Memoriam.” From it I made Tennyson a living friend and the poem became my live teacher about the vast love in my heart. Christ lives. Poems are born to poets, and live! Blessings of the day to you!

Glorious read! Such wonderful imagery, and profound truth. This is really inspiring and reassuring, that, when we sleep, awake, and then walk with God as well, our days will be filled with blossoms and fond achievement. Splendid poetry! Just perfect.
